    3. Martha Sorry for the delay getting back - we had an exciting break-through on my wife's line. Since we have been having so much trouble on her side we've been spending all our spare time wading through pension papers and logging the information gleaned. But enough gloating....... In looking at my cemetery photos I realize I took no pictures of Roll headstones - as I indicated, in my family we weren't aware of the Roll / Rall connection. At any rate the headstones I have: - Magaret A. Burns 1832 - 1922 (nee Margaret Ann Rall - my Rall connection) - Lucinda Wife of J. Rall Died Dec12 1879 Aged 71Y 6M 1D (age is difficult to read, I may have it wrong) - Moses Rall died Apr. 10, 1868 aged 70Ys. 4M0. & 9Ds - Elizabeth Wife of M. Rall died Apr.26, 1849 aged 46 Ys. 10 Mo. & 23Ds. (nee Elizabeth Dew Wyatt) - Aaron Rall died Mar.21, 1835 Aged 52 Ys 11 Mo - Mary Wife of Aaron Rall died Dec. 6, 1850 aged (can't decipher) - Rall (family plot stone) John L. Rall 1836 - 1918 "FATHER" Eliza J. Rall 1839 - 1914 "MOTHER" (other family members in this plot, but I ran out of film) - Abraham B.(?) Rall died Apr. 20 1864 & Wife Elizabeth (This monument was one of the more impressive in the cemetery and one of the tallest oblesks I've ever seen as a private monument, unfortunately, someone in the long ago planted a tree very near the monument and its growth is beginning to make the stone lean, the shade has also allowed the lichen growth to obscure some of the inscription. Hope you find my rambling as interesting as I find yours. Ed
